The upcoming FIFA Club World Cup starting on June 14 will be an unprecedented stage for some of the world stars of soccer, but also for some talents seeking their next step as the summer transfer window opens right after the tournament concludes in July. Let’s examine five players who could leverage their participation in this international tournament to gain interest from other clubs in the near future.
Giovanni Reyna, Borussia Dortmund
Gio Reyna has the chance to shine at the Club World Cup, as this will mark his first official tournament on home soil at the club level. A standout performance could significantly raise his profile ahead of the 2026 World Cup. After missing the Gold Cup with the USMNT to participate in this tournament, it’s essential for him to make a mark, especially after a quiet season where he scored only two goals in 25 appearances during the 2024-25 campaign.

Dusan Vlahovic, Juventus
Dusan Vlahovic is another player who could attract interest following the tournament. Rumors suggest he may leave Juventus this summer, with only one year left on his contract. His inconsistency this season has raised questions, and the Club World Cup presents him an ideal opportunity to showcase his talent to potential suitors.
Facundo Colidio, River Plate
Colidio will team up with Franco Mastantuono for the last time in the Club World Cup before Mastantuono joins Real Madrid. His ability to play both as a striker and winger could make him a desirable prospect for several European clubs.
Jamie Gittens, Borussia Dortmund
Gittens has already drawn significant transfer interest, with Chelsea rumored to be in the mix after his impressive scoring record this season. However, stalled negotiations before the deadline could lead to heightened competition post-tournament.
Mehdi Taremi, Inter
Inter Milan is expected to undergo a roster transformation, allowing Taremi to showcase why the club pursued him last summer from FC Porto. If he performs well, he might secure a transfer opportunity after only a year with the Nerazzurri.
